I have a friend who had a Saito 72 in one and it flew real well with the 72. I would think it would be underpowered (at least where I live 4000ft elevation) with the OS 52. You might check the weight of the OS70 against the Saito 72. I believe the Saito 72 might weigh less.

I have the Kyosho Pitts with a new Saito .56....... works just fine. Lots of pulling power. Be careful with this plane though.....it tends to snap heavily to the left on take off. Be ready for it. Trust me on this one especially with other pilots on the flight line.
Sometimes it takes off straight ahead....but watch out for the left snap.
